On Thursday 3 June, Bowenville (near Toowoomba) based Cessna 525 CitationJet CJ1+ bizjet VH-JSZ was yet again back in the region, noted visiting some Central Queensland Airports during another busy day of flying.

On this occasion, it looked to fly out of Archerfield and call into Cunnamulla, Roma, Mackay and Rockhampton Airports.  VH-JSZ then departed Rocky for Canberra before returning to Archerfield.

Meanwhile, also noted visiting Rockhampton Airport, also on Thursday 3 June, was McDermott Aviation Group / Machjet International Raytheon B200 King Air VH-NSN.  It arrived from the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane and later departed to Maryborough Airport.  It then returned to Brisbane and Sunny Coast.

And while we haven't mentioned this aircraft for some time, the often visiting American-registered Eclipse EA500 bizjet N257AK continues to visit the Whitsunday Airport at Shute Harbour, and on Thursday 3 June, it departed there for Archerfield.  It appears to have flown in from Archerfield back on Sunday 23 May.

Finally, also on Thursday 3 June, SFC Farming Raytheon B200 King Air VH-TXT landed at Longreach Airport from Katherine (RAAF Base Tindal).  It then departed to Mundine.

VH-TXT had flown over to the Northern Territory via Mount Isa two days earlier.

While Colville Aviation Services (Torres Strait Air) Pilatus Britten-Norman BN2A-21 Islander VH-WQA was noted ferrying from Emerald Airport to Horn Island following what we believe to be a long period of maintenance. 

And Brescon (Toowoomba) Beech B200 VH-WXN flew up directly to the Labona Station Airstrip within Adani Australia's (Bravus Mining & Resources) Carmichael Coal Mine site from Toowoomba-Wellcamp Airport. 

UPDATE!  On Friday 4 June, VH-WXN departed Labona and returned to Wellcamp.
